The latest information about MariaDB is available at http://mariadb.org/.
You can find additional information about the MySQL part at:

Start and enable the mysqld service. 

[user1-pc http]# systemctl enable mysqld
Created symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/mariadb.service &rarr  /usr/lib/systemd/system/mariadb.service.
[user1-pc http]# systemctl start mysqld

Then run the MySQL installation process by running the following command. 

[user1-pc http]# mysql_secure_installation

NOTE: RUNNING ALL PARTS OF THIS SCRIPT IS RECOMMENDED FOR ALL MariaDB
      SERVERS IN PRODUCTION USE!  PLEASE READ EACH STEP CAREFULLY!

In order to log into MariaDB to secure it, we' ll need the current
password for the root user.  If you' ve just installed MariaDB, and
you haven' t set the root password yet, the password will be blank,
so you should just press enter here.
Enter current password for root (enter for none):
OK, successfully used password, moving on...

Setting the root password ensures that nobody can log into the MariaDB
root user without the proper authorisation.
Set root password? [Y/n]
New password:
Re-enter new password:
Password updated successfully!
Reloading privilege tables..
 ... Success!

By default, a MariaDB installation has an anonymous user, allowing anyone
to log into MariaDB without having to have a user account created for
them.  This is intended only for testing, and to make the installation
go a bit smoother.  You should remove them before moving into a
production environment.

Remove anonymous users? [Y/n]
 ... Success!
Normally, root should only be allowed to connect from ' localhost' .  This
ensures that someone cannot guess at the root password from the network.

Disallow root login remotely? [Y/n]
 ... Success!

By default, MariaDB comes with a database named ' test'  that anyone can
access.  This is also intended only for testing, and should be removed
before moving into a production environment.
Remove test database and access to it? [Y/n]
 - Dropping test database...
 ... Success!
 - Removing privileges on test database...
 ... Success!

Reloading the privilege tables will ensure that all changes made so far
will take effect immediately.
Reload privilege tables now? [Y/n]
 ... Success!

Cleaning up...
All done!  If you' ve completed all of the above steps, your MariaDB
installation should now be secure.

Thanks for using MariaDB!

PHP service

To start the PHP service, add these lines to the bottom of the httpd.conf file using vim editor. Save and exit the file. 

[user1-pc ~]#  vi /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
LoadModule mpm_prefork_module modules/mod_mpm_prefork.so
LoadModule php7_module modules/libphp7.so
AddHandler php7-script php
Include conf/extra/php7_module.conf

Next install PHP service by executing the following command.

To test the PHP service, open a file named test.php and enter the following lines in the file. Save and exit the file. 

[user1-pc ~]# cd /srv/http/
[user1-pc http]# vi test.php
< ?php
 hpinfo() 
?> 
[user1-pc http]# systemctl restart httpd

Switch over to the browser and type http://your IP/test.php . The home page of PHP will appear on the screen.
